Our stay was great. This was conveniently located less than 5 minutes from the train station and removed the need for a taxi. It is also close to the bus station for a day trip to Siena. The accommodations were perfect for what we needed. All the big sites are within a 15-20 minute walk making it the perfect place to just stroll around. We really enjoyed our stay and would consider booking again in the future.

Thank you for your kind review! We're so glad to hear you appreciated the cleanliness, the convenient location near the train and main sights, and that the apartment had everything you needed. It’s also great to know our communication made your stay easier. We’d be very happy to host you again in the future!
My family and I (5 adults) stayed for 3 nights in July 2026. The property fitted our needs perfectly and provided an excellent base from which to explore Florence. All the tourist/historical sites of interest, the train station and the airport (via the tram) are easily accessible from the apartment. Other reviews have mentioned the top floor location of the apartment and the number of stairs, which is true, but we did not find this to be an issue. Also, the expected occasional traffic noise from the street below due to the city centre location can be well excluded provided care is taken when closing the window to the main bedroom and ensuring the top locking mechanism engages properly. Overall we found the apartment to be clean and in good order, with Oscar providing a comprehensive check in experience. In summary, we’d recommend property to anyone thinking of a similar short city break.

Thank you for your wonderful and detailed review! We’re delighted that the apartment was the perfect base for exploring Florence and that your family enjoyed the space and location. We appreciate your comments. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we would be happy to welcome you back for another stay!
The apartment was nice and it fit our family of 5 well. I was a little frustrated because t didn't provide the attachments needed to use the hairdryers that were provided and I reached out on WhatsApp but never heard a response. We were there for a wedding so the hair dryers were pretty important. It was also an incredibly loud street and there was street noise all night long.

Thank you for your feedback. We’re glad the apartment worked well for your family size and stay overall.
We’re very sorry about the missing hairdryer attachments and especially the lack of response on WhatsApp—this is not the level of service we aim to provide, particularly for something important during a wedding stay. We will review our communication process to ensure quicker support in the future.
We also appreciate your note regarding street noise. Being in a central area, some level of city sound can occur, especially at night, but we understand it may still be disruptive.
Thank you again for your stay and your comments.
Traveling with my father and pre-teen sons, this flat was perfect, with space for everyone. Beautiful finishes and great location, we’d stay again in a heartbeat.
The location of this property was fantastic! So close to the train station, which was great. Very close proximity to so many things and great restaurants. There are lots of stairs so people with heavy bags might find it difficult.
Nice and modern place. Close to everything. Plenty restaurants within walking distance. Florence is a beautiful city with so much to do and this place was perfect.

Thank you for your positive review! We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the apartment. We will be happy to host you again!
My family stayed here for one night as we journeyed across Italy. The loft area was a big hit with the kids. The location made walking to and from the train station a breeze, and we were able to walk to all of the other sites we wanted to see as well. I would stay here again.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We're thrilled to hear that your family enjoyed the loft area and found the location so convenient for exploring Florence. It sounds like you had a wonderful time! We’d be happy to welcome you back anytime during your travels across Italy.
5 Minutes to the train station and 10-15 minutes in any direction to the top sites in Florence. It was very clean, modern and comfortable for our family of 4 (two teen kids). Would definitely recommend and return next time we're in Florence.
It was the perfect place for our family. Wish we had more time in Florence. Will definitely come back and stay again. Always quick response with any questions, even just regarding the area. Thank you so much.
Due to unforseen circumstances we had to be moved to a separate property which was larger, lovely and nearer the center of Florence. We lacked for nothing except perhaps a roll of paper towels and some hot pads for use in the kitchen.
The place was clean. This a place that sleeps 8 people but they only had one key! I read that the hair dryers didn't work in a previous review and when I asked about that they replied that they have hair dryers. They had ones that don't fit in the outlets that they use. They did bring two more hair dryers that did work, the next day. My daughter got unexpectedly sick at about 4:00am and I wanted to check out later to extend our stay by about two hours. The owners would not allow that. They said someone else needed to check in that day. That was disappointing. I thought the location was great and we had plenty of space.
The property was located in the heart of Florence, about a 5-minute walk from the train station. It was gorgeous and had everything you could need within a short few-minute walk. The grocery store between the rental property and the train station had everything we could need. Historical landmarks, museums, and amazing restaurants were all an easy walk away. This property fit our party of 8 perfectly and had enough room to relax after a long day of adventuring. Thank you for accommodating our stay while we explored Florence!
